Hi! Nice to be back - it is so great to have a day at home just to sew! We still have crispy weather with beautiful sunshine - aah, spring!
Promises, promises - well here we go! I hope this project doesn't end up being another UFO - WIP, yep, that's okay - maybe one block a day would be nice. I really just love this quilt very scrappy and quite bold, I think that is the appeal. It can be widely seen and I have taken my inspiration from Cathy at Cabbage Quilts and Amy at Badskirt. I love the Japanes novelty prints
so anyone out there who can point me in the right direction to acquiring more, I would love to hear about it - I feel sure there must be a lot of quilt stores here and overseas stocking them, maybe Etsy stores, too.
I'm feeling a bit sad about not having much of a chance to use my new Janome very much - I haven't bonded with her yet, so let's hope now is the time. There are so many gorgeous things happening out there, so tempting!
Hope your day is a happy one!
